It is pass the parcel, in effect. No Department is willing to take responsibility for the disgraceful abuses taking place in the fishing sector. That was the main recommendation of our report but the Minister of State did not address the question I asked. I can confirm on the record here that all 12 recommendations have been ignored. In time to come there will be a tribunal of inquiry on what is happening in this sector and the one thing the Minister will not be able to say is that he did not know. He knows, and he has done nothing about it.
